The Human Rights Program made a written submission to provide input for the Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of slavery’s thematic report—to be submitted to the 57th Session of the Human Rights Council on current and formerly incarcerated people and contemporary forms of slavery. Drawing from primary research conducted by the ACLU and the University of Chicago Law School’s Global Human Rights Clinic in the 2022 report Captive Labor: Exploitation of Incarcerated Workers, this submission provides information concerning the use of coerced prison labor in the United States, the exploitation and abuse of incarcerated workers, and offers recommendations to address these serious human rights violations.
